Stop screwing up the page and there would be no need for revision. User:70.170.109.174
You are the one who is interfering with the article, not me. Please read Wikipedia's policy on the use of common names. You will note in the explanation of that policy that Bill Clinton is not referred to in the encyclopaedia as William Jefferson Clinton. The description of the policy you will read there states that "commonly used names in support of recognizability" are used, not a person's formal full name. Thus, the article about Neil Armstrong is not called "Neil Alden Armstrong" but simply "Neil Armstrong". While his full name is cited once within the article about him, he is referred to throughout the encyclopaedia simply as "Neil Armstrong."
When leaving a comment on a talk page such as this one, please follow the policy of signing your name after your comment by typing four tildes (like this: ~~~~. When you save the edit, your user name or IP address will appear after your comment.
Please also follow the Wikipedia policy of including an edit summary when changing an article, explaining what your edit is and why. The policy concerning this can be read at WP:FIES and states "always provide an edit summary." Thank you.
If you continue interfering with the Gemini 5 article, I will ask an administrator to ban you from editing because of your repeated violation of the policy on common names. — O'Dea (talk) 04:22, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. DlohCierekim 13:35, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
